Storage capabilities ?

[mh.p...@gmail.com]

Dear All,

I've got some questions related to the storage capabilities of Orthanc:

• What is the maximal size supported ?
• Could we manage about 10 TB of images ?
• Which file system access protocol does Orthanc support ? SMB, NFS, iSCSI ?
• Is Orthanc able to use network teaming to increase the available bandwidth to access the storage ?

Many thanks for your answers.

Best regards.

Hi,

I've got some questions related to the storage capabilities of Orthanc:

• What is the maximal size supported ?

There's no known limitation.  Performance might be affected by your database/disk bandwidth (we recommend you to use a Postgresql DB for large DB) 

• Could we manage about 10 TB of images ?

Yes, we do have Orthanc runnings with 140.000 studies and 10 TB storage.  I've heard of systems with 15TB without issues. 

• Which file system access protocol does Orthanc support ? SMB, NFS, iSCSI ?

Orthanc is not "aware" of your file system.  It will only connect to network drives that have been mounted and that are seen as local disks.

 

• Is Orthanc able to use network teaming to increase the available bandwidth to access the storage ?

Given the above remark, this will depend only on your OS/drivers, not on Orthanc.

Br,

Alain

 

Many thanks for your answers.
